Traditional mold positioning devices primarily employ simple positioning pins and blocks, achieving positioning through mechanical cooperation. However, this structure suffers from low positioning accuracy, difficulty in adjustment, and insufficient locking reliability. With ever-increasing product precision requirements, traditional positioning devices can no longer meet the demands of modern mold manufacturing. Existing positioning devices generally suffer from the following problems: positioning accuracy is limited by machining precision, making fine adjustments difficult; locking mechanisms use simple bolt connections, resulting in uneven locking force distribution and easy deformation; unreasonable guide mechanism design leads to low motion accuracy and a tendency to jam; and the overall structure is complex, difficult to manufacture, and costly. Existing solutions mainly include improving machining accuracy, using hydraulic locking, and employing pneumatic adjustment, but these solutions suffer from high costs, complex structures, and difficult maintenance, hindering their widespread application in actual production.

[0044] Specifically, the principle of this utility model is as follows: This device establishes a stable positioning benchmark through the precise cooperation between the positioning seat and the positioning column. The stepped structure design of the positioning column allows the upper section to undertake the guiding and adjustment functions, while the lower section undertakes the final positioning function, achieving effective separation of functions. The adjustment mechanism adopts the precision screw drive principle, converting the rotational motion of the screw into the linear motion of the positioning column, achieving micro-adjustment. The 0.5 mm pitch design results in a 0.5 mm displacement per revolution, and micron-level adjustment accuracy can be achieved by controlling the rotation angle. The locking mechanism adopts the wedge self-locking principle. The wedge locking block moves towards the positioning column under the action of the locking bolt, utilizing the geometric characteristics of the wedge to generate amplified locking force. The wedge angle design of 30 to 60 degrees ensures good self-locking performance and locking force transmission efficiency. The guiding mechanism ensures the linearity of movement through the precise cooperation between the guide sleeve and the guide rod. The 0.02 mm to 0.05 mm clearance design ensures both guiding accuracy and avoids increased frictional resistance caused by excessive tightness. The selection of materials for each component fully considers the performance requirements. The 45 steel adjusting screw, after quenching, has good hardness and wear resistance. The bronze adjusting seat has good wear resistance and self-lubrication. The aluminum alloy locking block is lightweight and high-strength. The stainless steel guide sleeve is corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant. The chrome-plated guide rod has high surface hardness and low coefficient of friction. The coordinated cooperation of each component achieves high-precision and high-reliability positioning function.
[0045] The specific operation or use method of this utility model is as follows: First, the positioning device is connected to the mold base via the positioning boss on the outer wall of the positioning seat. The threaded hole on the positioning boss is then used to bolt the device to the mold base, ensuring a secure and reliable connection. Next, the mold component to be positioned is placed on the lower section of the positioning column. The spiral positioning texture on the surface of the lower section of the column forms a reliable positioning fit with the mold component. Then, precision adjustment is performed using the adjustment mechanism. Rotating the adjustment screw causes its end to push the upper section of the positioning column, achieving a slight up-and-down movement of the positioning column, thereby adjusting the precise position of the mold component. During the adjustment process, the positioning accuracy can be monitored using measuring tools, and repeated adjustments are made until the required accuracy is achieved. After adjustment, the locking mechanism is activated. Rotating the locking bolt moves the locking block towards the positioning column, reliably locking the positioning column using the self-locking principle of the wedge structure to prevent displacement during subsequent use. The entire operation is simple and convenient, requiring no professional skills; ordinary operators can master it. During use, the guide mechanism automatically functions, ensuring the linearity and accuracy of the positioning column's movement without manual intervention.
